Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Aimed squarely at anyone who likes a story with emotional weight. Best on a quiet night when you're in the mood to feel something.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 10 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1921: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

Dr. Allen Erskine's maiden aunt Elizabeth attempts to save her nephew's floundering marriage by staging the kidnaping of her nephew's son, in the hope that the married couple will be drawn closer together by the experience.
